One way of doing this is to remember that for a lot of us, who were raised by our biological parents, we are to be thankful. Yes, for sure they protected us, fed us, clothed us, comforted us and loved us. Not saying that someone else didn't love you and care for you in this way, and thank God they did. By honoring our parents or folks that raised us sometimes they might need help with the gutters or tilling the garden etc. these are great times to honor your folks, take advantage of it. We also honor our folks by what we say, so if you can't say something positive about them, then don't say nothing. Remember no one is perfect at raising children, in fact perfection could only be seen through the eyes of our Creator. Man kind will always find something wrong with all things. All in all we should do the best we can at loving each other and honoring our fathers and mothers, no one will ever know you like your parents do, except maybe a brother or sister. There are lots of other ways of honoring your parents, let's check out some scripture. Read; Ephesians 6:1-3, Colossians 3:20, Luke 18:20, Deuteronomy 5:16, Proverbs 8:32-33, 10:1 & 20:11, Proverbs 23:22 & 23:24-26. Psalm 128:3. J D & DRL Poore

-The Apple Of Your Eye - Don't let evil control your life rise above the challenge, friends of God don't roll with strife all good things have balance. Look for fruit in those you know and you might find a brother, once your in stay in the flow then go and help another. J D Poore

from the author:

I chose poetry because it's an easy way to express myself in words. It's a way of relaxing for me. I also like to study words by going back to the original meaning of the word. Since I'm inspired to write about salvation I do a lot of studying. This led to the Heavenly Reflections page on our website. There are lots of pictures taken by my lovely wife and website partner. We both love nature and we hope you enjoy the pictures of our Fathers creation. With lots of prayer and faith, and by the Holy Spirit of God together we have overcome many obstacles. We want to share with everyone so that we might be ahelp in times of trouble. We hope to share with the world the joy that we have found in working for our Father, and the salvation we have because Jesus died for us. God Bless you and yours.J D Poore
